Solution

The correct option is B

-16.7 kcal


(A,B)

C(s)+O2(g)CO2(g) H=394 kJ .......(i)

H2(g)+12O2(g)H2O(l) H=284 kJ.......(ii)

CH4(g)+2O2(g)CO2(g)+2H2O(l) H=892 kJ...........(iii)

Adding (i) & (2 ×(ii)) and subtracting (iii) from it,

-394 + (2 ×(284)) + 892

=-70 kJ

1 calorie = 4.18 J

70kJ=16.7kcal.
